Square Thumbnails #1549

Description

@Ayoitswiz

PROBLEM:
There's a Chrome extension called Thumbnail Rating Bar for YouTube™ that adds a bar to the top or bottom of thumbnails just like the removed like/dislike bar that used to be under videos.
With YT's recent update to make thumbnails have rounded corners, part of the like/dislike bar is hidden. And sometimes it's enough to not be able to see the red side of the like/dislike bar.

SOLUTION:
So my feature request is to add an option to make thumbnails square just like you did for user images:
image

ALTERNATIVES:
I don't think any are needed imo, this should be an easy thing to implement.

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:
Yes, the rounded corners are a stupid trend and hide info that may only exist in the corner of a thumbnail.
Anyone who uses your already existing "Squared user images" option should like this option, as well as, anyone using Thumbnail Rating Bar for YouTube™

"SIDE EFFECTS":
Who might not want this you ask? Well maybe that one dude who feature requested the "Squared user images" option shouldn't be squared......

CONTEXT:
I think I've said enough

SHORT Table (Summary)
Problem Rounded thumbnail corners
Solution Option for "Squared thumbnail images"
Alternatives Shouldn't be necessary
Scope ~99% if they know about it.
Side effects Another menu option
Context Enough has been said
